Boost/AFR on the A-pillar. It's always in the corner of my eye. In the future I'd like to throw a new oil pressure, EGT and PLX multigauge showing water and oil temp in the dash locations. It's not pretty, but better looking than a Scangauge.

I'm going to be running E85 and will have fuel temp gauges so maybe that's what the others are..? Just a guess..

Boost/Oil Temp& Pressure (with the ability to switch to water temp) and AFR on the pillar. The G doesn't come with any dash gauges. Left off the EBC in the glove box.

Mine is a single turbo setup but I wouldn't change anything had I gone TT
